Mac Productivity Tip: Mission Control And The Middle Mouse Button

If you work with multiple large windows open you will need an easy way to switch between them without wasting time resizing and moving them. Go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES pane (in your dock, or apple menu), then to Mission Control. In older versions I think its called Expose. If you have a 3-button mouse (or one with a down-push scroll wheel button), assign Mission Control to Middle Mouse Button in the right hand menu. Now every open window will re-organize itself when you down-click the middle button.

Lastly, take Mission Control icon out of your dock. You won't need it now!
